Abstract

The paper is about automatically generated speech units. The units are generated by ergodic hidden Markov model. These units are for VLBR - very low bit rate coding systems.

Annotation

Units automatically generated are used in VLBR (Very Low BitRate) coding. One approach is to generate ALISP - Automatic Language Independent Speech Processing units by temporal decomposition and vector quantization were used there. Our goal is to propose better approach. We use EHMM - Ergodic Hidden Markov Model for ALISP units determination. A brief description of the model, its initialization and training is discussed in this paper. Experimental results are discussed in the conclusion.
